Smartwatch – new Sony software update, 200 apps and more!

A new software update for smartwatch is now available, bringing cool new features, tweaks and improvements…

Here’s a look at what’s included:

Six new watch faces, something for everyone 🙂 – retro, wacky, contemporary… each with different functionality. Wake the watch face up with a double tap, a ‘my gesture’ movement detection or by moving the watch towards you with a twist of the wrist (Motion Clock face). Check out the screenshots below!

Notification previews – see snippets of your messages, tweets and wall posts, when notified of new interactions

Smoother search – with around 200 smartwatch apps (and growing!), we’ve added Categorised sorting/search to make it easier to find what you want

More intuitive, aligned interface across smartwatch and Smart Connect, and we’ve also added a QR Code to make connection even simpler if you have a non-Sony Android phone

To celebrate the update and functionality, we’re also rolling out some new product features; an improved charging cable and all new wristbands – Sony’s turquoise and purple, along with fresh designs from our partners.
